New Dragon Ball Z Box Sets at Costco Canada?!

Post by Zeroplus » Wed Nov 06, 2013 7:43 pm

OK, I'm 100% sorry if this was already posted.

I was at Costco, in Ontario Canada, with my girlfriend and saw these. When did these come out? I never saw anything on the main page.

Wow, those are pretty cool. Would you be able to say what they went for?

I bet they're doing it to clear out stock for the Blu-Rays.

Like price? $47 for the movies, and $140 for the series.

Strange question being that that prices are on the boxes and all.

Either getting the 3 FUNimations Z Movie sets (same thing, split up) or waiting for them to probably be announced for the UK after GT Season 2 comes out (I'm guessing)

I was gonna get the three boxes soon, but I'd really rather have something like this. I guess they're easier to find online. And I'm not waiting for a UK release.

Why on Earth did they choose that movie 11 image to represent the entire Dragon Ball Z film series?

I think it's because it has kids on it. Parents will be more likely to pick it up. I almost did. I have the three smaller box sets already, and the steel cases...

It's a good piece of art regardless of what film it's from. To the regular guy who's never seen any of the films before it holds no negative connotation, and to the guy who's seen all 13 - he knows what he's buying anyway.

I would assume all of these are retailer-specific like we saw with the Walmart bundles of multiple orange bricks (two at a time, were they...?). I don't think these ever made it out into the standard retail world.

Do the movies include an option for the dub music?

Original Japanese audio, dub with dub replacement score, dub with original score. So, yes.

I'm quite interested in this too. I doubt It'll make it's way over to the UK though. This seems like one of those Walmart two-orange-bricks-in-one kinda deal that happened a while back. I guess I'll just wait for MangaUK to license it or I'll get the 3 packs.
